Phoenix Contact offers a five-port Ethernet switch with IP67 protection for use in harsh industrial environments. The switch sets itself apart as a result of the compact design and ease of installation that makes it ideal for the machine construction sector. Its housing is only 30 mm wide so it can be installed on a standard structural element without protrusion.
With its high IP67 protection and wide temperature range from -40 to 70°C, this switch is designed to address a variety of applications. It can be quickly and easily installed using the symmetrically arranged retaining points that accept M6 screws.
Its integrated priority handling of data packets according to IEEE 802.1p allows the switch to be used in Profinet or heterogeneous environments, in which services such as IP telephony are to be handled with the highest priority.
